Acai
Overview
Acai (ah-SAH-ee) berries - just like every other type of edible berry - are full of antioxidants and beneficial phytonutrients. Acai supplements are an increasingly popular choice among people who don't get enough fruits and vegetables in their diet. Liquid Acai supplements like this one from NOW Foods are the most popular type. Acai supplements have attracted a lot of interest from both supplement makers and the health-conscious public, partly because of its exotic name and partly because multi-level marketing companies are in on the game, selling expensive acai supplements through word-of-mouth networks that depend on exaggerated anecdotal claims about miraculous results. All this has created confusion and caution among consumers interested in trying Acai. Many brands are attempting to cash in on the Acai craze with thrown-together products that don't measure up.
Fortunately, now that purity and potency fanatics NOW Foods offer a liquid Acai supplement, anyone can use Acai and know that they're getting a properly formulated product at a great price. With NOW's Acai, you'll like the taste, you'll know you're getting a bona fide Acai supplement from a company that specializes in supplements and best of all you won't overpay.
